Yes! Call him out and make him pay financially and publicly and professionally. It continues to astound me how so called 'adults' in this day and age think this way let alone say it out loud. But they find each other and intimidate others from calling them out.
So it took some digging... He said it was being reported that a freshman on campus allegedly slept with her BF's Dad. No name, no specifics. Yes he should never have brought it up. He should know better. But she has 0 case. Someone else posted her info on X. She should go after them.
Sue him, sue his employers, ESPN and their parent company Disney, sue his other employer WWE/TKO. Sue every person that has spoken on his show about this. Sue him til he has no money.
This is horrible. And why would ESPN use it as a topic on their show and compound the lie. ESPN, what have you done about this? Someone needs to answer for it.
I hope so. He’s an asshat and ESPN should get him off the air. Not his first time propagating crap. That young lady didn’t deserve any of this. Shame on him and Barstool Sports.
A bunch of emotionally stunted little boys that couldn't get laid bc they were assholes lashing out at females with more class and decency than they could ever even imagine. Time to say fuck these damaged man-baby weirdos and go after them trying to be a cruel and vengeful bigshot every single time.
That is so infuriating when someone says you did something and you know you didn’t,back in high school somebody did the same thing to me and I was labeled a slut for years in school, it ruined my reputation
What the hell is wrong with white men! I know there are a lot good men out there but the ones in power seem to be insufferable sadistic dicks. Is this happening because of all the testosterone supplements out there. Is that warping their brains? Their behavior is unbearable.
Ever since he started sucking Aaron Rodgers's ass, hillbilly McAfee has been quite the white trash douchebag. Hopefully, the young lady destroys him in court.
Technically he’s not an ESPN employee. He owns the show, controls the content, and licenses the show to the self-proclaimed Worldwide Leader. An outlier at ESPN.
Probably a clause in the license agreement with McAfee’s company that would allow it, but McAfee brings the eyeballs, so it would probably take an on-air violent felony for ESPN to even consided it.
The question isn’t should she sue, or will she sue, but how much will she get from McAfee and ESPN. It will be a large number, probably through a settlement, because McAfee and ESPN would get cleaned out by a jury.
As a WWE fan, this isn't even the only incident in the past month or so. For awhile, he was the golden boy of the WWE announce team, everyone was overjoyed whenever he would appear. Now, he's losing his shine fast and people are turning on him.
We really should be able to sue all these people and news outlets that put this bullshit out there. They need to be held accountable and pay a price for publishing lies. Why can't we sue Fox or Twitter every time they post this nonsense? If we could sue, it would cut down on the disinformation.
She should sue him for a billion dollars. That would send a strong signal to be careful what you publicly say about someone else if you don't have proof to back it up.
Pat McAfee and Joe Rogan are the poster boys of the toxic "Bro-Culture". The followers of these two were the ones running around with the "your body, my choice" shirts on. I hope she sues him for all he's worth.
Good! There should be consequences for spouting off bullshit about other people with no thought to how it impacts them, only thinking about how many clicks it will get you.
The media and its influence are what got us to this point. It is imperative we label the information as harmful. It is worse than cigarettes, DDT, and taking a bath with a toaster. If those have warnings why not Fox. It is a bigger killer, of intelligence & common sense in history.
This is never about the woman.
This is always about insecure masculinity and avarice.
She has never been the problem
It has always been him that is the issue.
Good sue these mother fuckers. So sick of people being able to say whatever they want and be as nasty as they want without consequences. Mean culture needs to go.
ESPN is responsible for embracing the Fox News ethos in sports. From a respected journalistic outlet for true sports to a loud, obnoxious shell of itself.
I mean, that doesn't shock me in the least. Guy seems like he's a right piece of garbage. He's a huge part of why I don't watch wrestling as much anymore.
WWE is the big one as I watched that since I was a kid and still enjoy it a good bit of it, not due to those in charge, but for the wrestlers themselves who are just decent people. Xavier Woods is a prime example. But having to listen to a MAGA mouthpiece on commentary is so offputting.
The worst part is I fear that Pat has gotten into Michael Cole's earpiece, so to speak. Cole used to be the consummate professional, especially after Vince left. He was the voice of reason and I enjoyed his playcalling.
Now, half the stuff he says and does, I have to watch the show on mute.
Yes, what a hole Dave Portnoy, did I spell his name correctly?, who cares, what a fine human being. Another thoughtless mouth loving the sound of its own voice.
This wont be as easy as when Brett Farve dropped his defamation suit against McAfee for a simple apology.
McAfee overstepped his boundaries here and her legal team are navigating their suit for a healthy ESPN settlement. Rightly so.
McAfee screwed up here.
Pay the woman.
Suspend him.

If they want to be the Fox News of Sports - let ‘em have it. With both barrels.
McAfee was, is, and probably won't ever stop being an asshole.
Just sayin'.
I wonder how long before WWE pulls the plug.
Destroying lives for clicks, likes and eyeballs needs to have consequences.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.
And media equipment.
